In the psychological drama, two parents are forced by a stranger to examine the disappearance of their daughter. Richard Schiff recently achieved widespread fame for his role as a somber presidential advisor on "The West Wing." Patricia Wettig is still best known for her Emmy winning role as a suffering wife on "thirtysomething." Not coincidentally, her play, Headlong, was given a reading at Vassar June 22-24.

Murray-Smith has stuck gold at the Powerhouse before. Honour was given a reading there starring Meryl Streep and eventually moved to Broadway in a production starring Jane Alexander and Enid Graham. Nightfall has been previously produced by the Playbox Theatre Company in Melbourne, Australia, and the Sydney Theatre Company.
